It is said that Sun Pillar-sama is the god of fire

It was the last battle before dawn.

The faint light penetrated the deep clouds, and in the thin mist at dawn, it seemed that the dawn of hope shone on the hearts of the already exhausted members of the Ghost Killing Squad.

It is also reflected in the eyes of Onimai Tsuji, who is afraid of the sun to the bone.

The Ghost King, who was terrified of death, tried his best to escape from the almost pervasive sunshine.The light, warm to a human, burned his skin like a fire.

The ghost king's body rapidly swelled into a huge flesh baby, and with the protection of the flesh baby, he tried his best to escape into the shadows.

However, he still underestimated the Ghost Slayer Squad's resentment towards him and their determination to stop him.

Even if they have already been bruised and bruised, surrounded by the corpses of their partners, dragging their mutilated and broken bodies, trying to use up the last candle of their lives, they will drag Kimai Tsujimu under the sun and completely wipe out.

From now on, there will be no such pathetic and hateful creatures as evil spirits in the world.

The source of all tragedies will be completely dissipated today.

Tanjirou, who had already been swallowed by Onimai Tsujimu, was ups and downs in consciousness.He vaguely heard noisy sounds coming from his ears, it seemed that someone was roaring, someone was crying, and he couldn't hear clearly.

He could feel his body melting, but Tanjiro had no regrets.He would not hesitate to sacrifice his life for the complete elimination of Kiwu Tsuji.

There seems to be a warm feeling coming.Tanjirou Kamado could no longer open his eyes, this feeling that seemed to warm his heart completely was like countless sunny mornings, the warm sunshine generously transmitted his own temperature to the bottom Vibrant teenager.

His consciousness seemed to be gradually rising amid such intoxicating warmth.In a vague way, he seemed to see his long-gone family members waving at him from a distance.

He ran towards them, but no matter how hard he ran and how he called their names, he still couldn't reach them, and even their figures got farther and farther away, almost completely fading out of his sight.

"Wait for me—!"

Tanjiro Kamado shouted, but he couldn't catch up with his family until he was exhausted and out of breath, and there was only whiteness in his vision.

Unspeakable sadness flooded my heart, and sour tears flowed down my face.Tanjirou Kamado suddenly understood that his family members were not here to pick him up, but to say goodbye to him.

The crimson-haired boy knelt on the spot and wept bitterly. At some point, a tiny flame appeared beside him.Small flames slowly surrounded him, fluctuated and rotated with the frequency of his breathing, and the faint warmth passed along the skin to the bottom of the young man's heart.

"Are you...are you trying to comfort me?"

The tiny, countless flames couldn't speak, they just moved closer to him, and some of them were even close to sticking to his face.

Kamado Tanjiro carefully stretched out his hand to hold the flame in front of him, and the flame in front of him stopped obediently in the palm of his hand, as if he could feel his gaze, burning quietly in the palm of his hand.

"thank you all."

Even though he knew that these flames might not understand at all, the crimson-haired boy still thanked them in a low voice.

In these countless flames, he slowly fell into a deep sleep.

****

"!"

Tanjiro Kamado, who thought he would never be able to open his eyes again, suddenly woke up. The tragic scene of the great war still remained in his mind. The last thing he saw when he opened his eyes was the ferocious mouth of Onimai Tsuji.

He is not dead?

Realizing this, the young man quickly turned around and wanted to pick up the Sun Saber next to him again, but he grabbed it empty with one hand, let alone the cold handle of the Sun Saber, there was nothing beside him, it was empty.

"Eh?"

What about the knife?

As if his eagerness was suddenly drowned out by a basin of cold water, Kamado Tanjiro stood there for a long time before he could react, feeling empty in his heart.

It was as if a piece of my heart had been hollowed out suddenly.

Only then did he have the energy to slowly survey his surroundings.

What drifted into the tip of the nose was an indescribable smell. The soft aroma reminded Kamado Tanjiro of a warm flame, but the aroma did not have the characteristic smell of mixed wood and coal being burned.

He was in a resplendent mansion that came from nowhere, and there was no one around.Looking far outside the door, there are many tall and tall torii gates in vermilion, like the most majestic guards, separating the boundary between the gods and the mortal world.

Tanjiro Kamado noticed something strange in his body after a while.

The eyes and left arm that were destroyed in the war were still intact at this moment, and the wounds on the body had already healed, and even the countless scars left by the injuries were completely gone.

What he was wearing was no longer the special uniform of the Demon Slayer Squad, but a silky and comfortable black kimono.The kimono is finely cut, with flame-like patterns winding up the hem, layer upon layer.

Even the dullest person should notice something is wrong at this moment.

"I am..."

As if he was afraid that Tanjiro Kamado would not understand the current situation, suddenly a lot of messy words popped up in his mind.

The young man whose head was paralyzed by the sudden huge amount of information froze, and it took him a long time to recover from his dizzy head. Looking at the luxurious kimono on his body, Kamado Tanjiro felt a sting in his heart.

He really died in that battle, and he is really still alive at this time.

He is not a human being now, let alone a pitiful creature like a ghost, but a god who stands on the nine heavens, sits upright in the high heaven, overlooks the world, and is worshiped by people.

He is the god of fire who brings hope and warmth to mankind.

For Kamado Tanjiro, whether it is an ordinary Tanjiro or a member of the Demon Slayer Squad, he is just an ordinary human being.

All of a sudden, he changed from an ordinary boy to a high god. The simple boy grabbed his clothes stiffly, not daring to move.

He even wished that he was still dreaming now.

However this is not possible.

The instincts that the gods were born with have already been imprinted in his soul with the change of identity. It was just a change of mind, and the prayers of countless believers came to his ears, which made his ears rumble , the brain almost crashed again.

As the god of fire, he has tens of thousands of followers.People can't live without flames. They need flames to make food cooked, darkness needs to be dispelled by the light brought by flames, and the warmth of flames is needed to sleep in cold winter nights.

Pious believers have built countless splendid temples for the god of fire, and a grand fire god sacrifice is held every year when the old year is about to die and the new year is approaching.

The newly born god still doesn't know how powerful he is, and he doesn't know that even if he just sits and sleeps in the god's residence in Gaotianyuan, there will be a steady stream of believers offering him countless exquisite tributes.

Kamado Tanjiro was just anxious. He had never been a god before, and he didn't know how to be a competent and excellent god and live up to the expectations of believers.

The kind and innocent boy scratched his head anxiously.There is no one else in this huge god's residence except him. He doesn't know if he is a replacement after the death of the previous generation of Vulcan, but if this is the case, it stands to reason that there should be artifacts left by the previous generation here.

Nor can he run to other gods to inquire.If he wanted to enter the divine dwelling of other gods, he had to obtain the permission of the other gods, otherwise, even if they were both in Gao Tianyuan, the gods would not be able to meet each other.

"Ahhh—what should I do?"

The god who really couldn't think of a solution sighed heavily, not knowing what to do.

How about... go to the human world first?

The new Vulcan thought so.If you actually observe the life of human beings and listen to the voices of human beings, you should be able to become a competent god, right?

God's thoughts are simple, but the facts have dealt him a considerable blow.

The gods in black kimonos step out of the shrine, step over the red torii gate that separates the gods and humans, and quietly step into the human world.

It was silent indeed.

Kamado Tanjiro stood on the side of the road in a daze for a while before he realized that people on the other side couldn't easily see him.

Although the world of gods and human beings intersect, it is just like a faint wave caused by a superficial touch of water, which is fleeting.

But ah...

Human beings' joys, sorrows, sorrows, and joys are conveyed into the sensitive nose of the gods. Although there will always be tragedies and happy things happening in any era, this feeling of peace and tranquility that permeates the air is something that the gods have never seen before. never smelled.

This is an aura that can only be found in an era where ghosts do not exist.

Vulcan couldn't help but frowned, thinking of another world far away.

He believes that the members of the Ghost Killing Team will definitely make Wu Mi completely annihilated in the sun.

A world without ghosts should be as peaceful and tranquil as here, right?

Vulcan raised his head, raised his right hand to gently cover the too dazzling light in the sky, and cast a shadow on his face with his slender and white hand.

Even if he is a god, looking directly at the sun still makes Kamado Tanjiro's eyes sour, his eye sockets slightly moist, and it seems that tears are slowly sliding down the lines on his face in a trance, refracting colorful light under the sunlight.

I don't know, did Mi Douzi turn back into a human being in that world and live a good life?

Even if he is gone, Shanyi should take good care of Mi Douzi instead of him, right?

And what about Inosuke?What about Mr. Yiyong?Where's Master Lintaki?

They should all be happy, in a world without ghosts.

Vulcan wiped away the tears that flowed all over his face at some point, and the tip of his nose was still a little sore.

He raised his smiling face, as if he wanted to leave all the sorrow behind, and walked forward slowly but firmly.

It's like saying goodbye to the past.

Those whom God loves and values ​​are no longer within reach. The only thing he can do is to live well in this strange time and space.

And his relatives and friends will also walk down with the best memories of him.

This is God's most tender and sincere blessing.
